8 speakers gotta sound like garbage at high volumes though... im sure at moderate levels it fine, but it would never hold a candle to the music i play. two speakers up front, subs in rear. that is best. it doesnt matter how many subs, those run off the same channel as the front.

its all personal preferance...

i am running a 3 way active setup(6 speakers)... and i try to not say my setyup is better than anyone elses until i can hear the setup in person-- my last car had paperconed Jenson 3" mids in the dash, and had a better vocal clarity than i have now-- and i have dumped almost 5k into my car now... after all, i have not seen what either of you are running-- customaudioman could be running morel supremos for all i know...

speakers sounding like garbage is more a sign of poor setup(wrong crossover, bad eq, incorrect level adjustment, thin wire, bad ground) than it is a defining factor in a 8(or 10 or 100) speaker install.

I use all arc audio stuff. the amps are the fd-4150 for the 4ch and fd-1200 for the arc audio 12d2 subs. I use two sets of components, arc6000 6.5 mid 1" tweeter. One set in the front and the other set in the rear. I will be moving the one in the rear to the front when I get some time to fiberglass new pannels. Also I drive a 2005 300c. here are some pictures of my ride?

do you even have a carputer? until you get one you can not even comment on this matter.

they are only slanted when parked( all the air is out of the air bags which cause the wheels to tuck into the fenders) 22x9.5 with 265-30-22 in the front and 22x11 with 295-25-22 tires in the rear. wheels are custom made 3pc wheels with 4" lip in the front and a 6" lip in the rear. wheels and air ride alone over $10k
